Chapter Twenty-Five: The Night Is Boundless, and There Is Nowhere to Find It

.

On the banks of the Forget Worry River, the light of the moon is still quietly sprinkled, tiled in the ripples on the surface of the Forget Worry River, shining with silver light.

Everyone quietly listened to Shi Chuan's calm narration of the process of fighting in Heaven that day, and they all sighed in their hearts.

Hearing this, Ganlu was fascinated and suddenly asked, "Then, did Senior Brother Fanxiang defeat the Heavenly Court Divine Clan, and what happened in the end?"

Changfeng also felt the same way, and saw that the manna had already asked what he was thinking, so he stopped talking, but listened quietly.

"All love will be impermanent for a long time. Alas, impermanence is hard to come by,...... Yes, the autumn is getting cooler, the leaves are withering, looking back, the moon is hazy, the smoke is like rain, and the dream is difficult to continue!" Shui Linyi looked at the green mountains on the other side of the Forget the Worry River, muttered, and said to himself.

"yes, yes, what happened?...... What happened in the end? An arrow came at me that day, and I hurried back to the grass hall in the enchantment, but I couldn't finally save Brother Fanxiang, alas,......" Spider blushed and asked anxiously.

"Well, yes, in the end, what's going on?" Shigawa was immersed in the narrative of this story, looking at the blue moon hanging in the night sky of the middle heaven with infinite fascination, "yes, what happened in the end?"

He came back to his senses, paused in his tone, and continued, "Later, I also heard from some old friends in the God Realm, some people said that Na Fanxiang died in battle at that time, some people said that after he was captured by Erlang God Yang Jian, he handed it over to Taishang Laojun and threw it into the Qiankun furnace to refine into a wisp of green smoke, and some people said that he did not die at all, but had a residual breath of blood, rushed out of the encirclement of the Nantian soldiers, and went straight to the other world under the Nine Heavens, and became a demon who had freedom, dared to love and hate. ”

Shichuan looked at the blue moon from afar, and sighed softly, not very embarrassed.

"Then what is another world? Senior Brother Shichuan, do you know?" Shui Linyi asked curiously.

"I don't know much about the other world, it's a realm different from the divine realm, and all sentient beings in the other world are divided into six categories, namely, the three good paths: heaven, human, and asura, and the three evil realms: hungry ghosts, beasts, and hells. ”

Shichuan paused, looked at the void in the dark night with infinite fascination, and said softly: "They live very freely, they can love, they can hate, they can live and die. In my imagination, the so-called otherworld is the world of beings that is different from the divine realm, and it is a time and space different from our gods. For example, we usually focus on the world we are in and call another world a different world. Generally speaking, the 'other world' is from the perspective of the Nine Heavens God Realm, and conversely, from the perspective of the other world, our Nine Heavens God Realm is a different world for them.

"In the other world, there are many different forms of nature, landscapes, creatures, tools, weapons, buildings, etc. And in such a different world, there are thousands of strange species in it, and they interpret alternative stories that are different from the world of the gods.

"There are many magical things, there are all kinds of peaceful coexistence of beasts, free demons, sincere lovers, there have been many popular legends and stories such as Pangu Didi, Nuwa mending the sky, Yanhuang Tuotu, etc.

"There are colorful birds there, which are like chickens, crested cockscombs, with a thousand eyes on their backs, and the world is peaceful when they see it. There is also something about Lilliputia, their name is 'Jingren', they are the 'red willow baby' that exists in the deep mountains of the Western Regions, just like the good fortune boy called the red boy under the seat of Guanyin Bodhisattva, they are like children, they like to wear red willows, tall rulers, men, women and children. And then there are the strange centaurs and fishmen, which are similar to the human-faced horses and the human-faced fish.

"These magical stories are just a little bit hidden in another world, so that world is also called 'Mountain and Sea Realm', which is a different realm from us.

"This different world is also contained in the big world of the universe in which we live, and this big world is not only a three-dimensional model of heaven, earth, and man, nor is it only time, space, and speed, but also the omnipresent big and the ubiquitous small. This world is constructed by a multi-dimensional time and space, including the Holy Realm, the Divine Realm, the Underworld, the Demon Realm, the Human Realm, the Material Realm and so on.

"At the same time, it's a big world with a moral code, but it's unbalanced, it's made up of three moral dimensions – can you understand what the three moral dimensions I'm talking about? It can be simply understood that positive morality is the belief that good is good and evil is evil; zero morality means that there is no moral concept, that is, God's reason, and no emotional color, as long as it is for the sake of the goal, no means are necessary, and there is no moral standard; negative morality is for the sake of one's own selfish interests, and the bad is said to be good, pointing to the deer as a horse, and the beautiful as ugly.

"Or, if you're too young to understand this, but when you go through all the things in this big world in the future, then, I think, you'll understand.

"In the world of God, there is no warmth of humanity, and there is no individual freedom, and for the other world, especially the spirit, humanity, morality, and belief of human beings, these were originally the exclusive topics of philosophers, ethicists, and theologians in the cold divine realm, but I feel that the ideas and concepts that belong to this other world deserve the attention and respect of the divine world. Because, in my consciousness, the other world is a world of great harmony with the world as the public, and the world is the public when the road is also traveled. The selection of talents and abilities, the belief and harmony, so that people do not only kiss their relatives, do not only have sons and sons, so that the old have the end, the strong have usefulness, the young have growth, the widowed, lonely and the sick, all have support. Men have a share, and women have a home. If you are evil and abandon it to the ground, you don't have to hide it from yourself, and if you are evil about it, you don't have to do it for yourself. It is because of the conspiracy to close but not to prosper, to steal and thieves not to do, so to do not close the outside household, it is said to be the same. 'That world is based on rules and morality, there is no private property, everyone works for society and not 'for himself'; the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled are cared for by society, children are brought up by society, and all those who are able to work have the opportunity to give full play to their talents; there is no privilege or hereditary system, and all those who hold public office are elected by the masses; there is a stable social order, no house is closed at night, no way is left behind, there is 'faith and harmony' with the outside world, and there are friendly exchanges between neighbors, and there are no wars and conspiracies. ...... When I heard Master talk about this concept in my early years, I longed for it. ”

Shichuan looked up at the space, the stars flowed, like a white horse passing through the gap, and his heart was full of yearning.

"Suddenly, there is a peach blossom forest, hundreds of steps between the shore, there are no miscellaneous trees, the grass is delicious, the fallen flowers are colorful, and the fishermen are very different. Moving forward again, I want to exhaust the forest. When the forest runs out of water, there will be a mountain, and the mountain has a small mouth, as if there is light. Drop off the boat and enter from the mouth. At the beginning, it is extremely narrow, and only then can it be passed. After dozens of steps, it suddenly became clear. The land is flat, the houses are like that, and there are good fields and beautiful ponds and mulberry bamboos. Qianmo traffic, chickens and dogs smell each other. Among them, the men and women are dressed like outsiders. Yellow hair hangs down and is happy. ...... Is that so?...... If so, how nice it would be for you to be there!" Shui Linyi whispered softly, looking at the distant night, leisurely.

Changfeng listened quietly, looking up at the void of the night, and his heart yearned for it.

The nectar, the spiders, and the water are all fascinating......

If I am also in this other world,

Which one will it fall into?

Will I be the fairy who doesn't eat the fireworks of the world, or the princess who is loved?

What joys and sorrows will I have?

What kind of love-hate relationship will I have?

Will I also have that fate of life and death, love and hate?
